gotta love when ppl, instead of replying, just say "you don't need it anyway" ...
I currently have the same problem which totally prevent me from implementing a couple of others application into my CodeIgniter's one ... (sorry I'm not gonna call the developers of bbpress and tell them to remove all their global variables because anyway global is 'bad')
I'm still trying to fix it but here is a hint someone just gave me on stackoverflow.com :
copy paste of his answer :
"The Input class in Codeigniter (which is automatically loaded):
* Destroys the global GET array. Since CodeIgniter does not utilize GET strings, there is no reason to allow it.
*
Destroys all global variables in the event register_globals is turned on.
* Filters the POST/COOKIE array keys, permitting only alpha-numeric (and a few other) characters.
* Provides XSS (Cross-site Scripting Hacks) filtering. This can be enabled globally, or upon request.
* Standardizes newline characters to \n
Maybe you can rip that bit out, and just make sure you have register_globals off, or do some crafty code shuffling.
The input class is loaded in the file system/codeigniter/CodeIgniter.php and I have no idea what would happen if you removed it.
